"Take more notice of hospital admissions and deaths but the huge jump in cases today is pretty worrying...." As long as those people only have mild symptoms then it's not worrying at all. Out of those almost 3k positive tests, only 124 got admitted to hospital, the majority of which will not need critical/intensive care. | |||

"I'm not worried.. just stop watching or reading the news you will be amazed how much you stop worying ignorance really is bliss." Or, look at the figures as a whole, take in the whole picture rather than just a snippet. | |||

This is nonsense, as you are looking at one metric as if it is the only metric of consequence. We should be worried about a rise in cases because the more people who have the virus, the more widely it spreads, and the more likely it is to affect people critically, fatally, and cause life changing complications for those who survive it. It also underlines that the current government approach is failing to halt the spread. | |||

No, I'm looking at all figures, the recent rise in cases has not led to a rise in hospitalisations and deaths, this confirms what some experts suspect, that the virus is less deadly but more easily passed on. The current government aren't the ones spreading it, the people breaking the rules are doing that. People need to take responsibility for their own actions. | |||

The rise in cases is amongst younger people, which doesn’t in any way prove the virus is less deadly, but is acting as expected - to cause less critical illness amongst the young. And of course avoided entirely the issue of life changing illness that is starting to be reported as it spreads amongst the young. Secondly, government mismanagement of this pandemic at every level is directly responsible for the rising spread. They have the social tools and legal powers to manage people’s behaviour very effectively - that they have not done so correctly is because they are demonstrably incompetent and corrupt. | |||

"Take more notice of hospital admissions and deaths but the huge jump in cases today is pretty worrying.... It going to spread, no matter how much you lockdown. " Lockdown reduces how much it spreads, that's why local lockdowns are implemented in areas with high infections. The local lockdowns have helped reduce the infections cases in those areas. | |||

" If this country ends up ‘bankrupt’, it will be the result of fiscal mismanagement on the part of successive Conservative governments since 2010 - the financial effects of the pandemic are a blip in comparison. What they have done during this short period, such as bailing out banks while letting private businesses sink into debt, will merely compound the problem they already caused. | |||

The consequences of a larger volume of people getting infected is that this can cause the hospitalisations, deaths etc to come further down the line.

"You're more likely to get run over by a bus, crossing the road!" Although I understand your point, only 2 people have been "run over by a bus" in the uk so far this year... The important thing to remember about the current figures, is that they are not comparable to the figures from early in the infection. When the virus was at it's peak, the number of infections reported was all people who were tested after being admitted to hospital. Now they are testing hundreds of thousands but only a tiny number are being hospitalised. On the other hand though, the rising number are a concern. Cal | |||

We don't need test numbers or scientists to tell us.... If we socialise more, go back to large groups, remove face coverings, don't wash surfaces and so on, that a disease that is spread by aerosol... Will spread further and faster and quicker. For those not able to think for themselves we have clear guidelines to follow. The same people who are ignoring guidelines are the same ones who are surprised or could care less that the numbers in the community are getting higher and higher. Thankfully hospitalisations are still low but nobody has a clue what the health consequences are for long covid so would seem sensible to try and dodge that bullet for as long as possible. | |||

This is nonsense, as you are looking at one metric as if it is the only metric of consequence. We should be worried about a rise in cases because the more people who have the virus, the more widely it spreads, and the more likely it is to affect people critically, fatally, and cause life changing complications for those who survive it.

No, I'm looking at all figures, the recent rise in cases has not led to a rise in hospitalisations and deaths, this confirms what some experts suspect, that the virus is less deadly but more easily passed on. The current government aren't the ones spreading it, the people breaking the rules are doing that. People need to take responsibility for their own actions."
